Utrecht center recently got another yarn shop. In addition to the wellknown Modilaine on Lijnmarkt whose main brands are Rowan and Lana Grossa, there is now Sticks & Cups in the Telingstraat (near cinema the Hoogt and woman bookstore Savannah). The shop has opened only a week ago and I immediately wanted to take a look.

Owner Lili, a passionated knitter / spinner, loves to tells about how she has set up her dream shop and her plans for it in the future. The walls are covered with fresh looking white cabinets with balls of yarn, resembling the bulb fields in the Westland. Most of what you see is Scheepjes, but also various qualities of Icelandic Lopi. Lili likes to buy every quality in all colors, because in her opinion it is important that the customer can choose. Soon there will be also changing selection of various hand dyers, because Lili wants to give her customers the chance to see and feel those yarns, which often only can be ordered via the Internet. And with yarns alone you can knit, so there are needles for sale from Knitpro and Hya Hya. A nice, fresh shop where you definitely just have to step inside. The coffee and tea is ready!
